About this audiobook
Responding to critics who questioned the veracity of her groundbreaking novel, the author presents a comprehensive collection of documents and testimonies verifying the realities of slavery. This non-fiction companion dismantles arguments against her fiction by laying bare the legal statutes and real-life accounts that inspired the characters. It serves as a searing indictment of the legislative support for human bondage.
